It’s bullshit to say we can’t feed the hungry AND care for the sick. The two aren’t mutually exclusive.

Listening to these 8 Dem Senators explain their vote convinces me that they are either idiots or liars. Either is plausible.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Caving on a deal that doesn’t fix health care is, and always has been, a giant betrayal of the American people.
Hold the line. Save health care. I’m a NO on anything that doesn’t extend ACA subsidies.

Does everyone remember Adriana Smith, the Georgia nurse who was declared brain dead while nine weeks pregnant?
The black woman who was kept alive without the consent of her family because of the fetus?
Baby “Chance” was born in June. He’s still in the NICU.
